Whats with females not wanting to share their husbands last name, though?

[i drink your milkshake]

I'll take the last name, no biggie--plus I want my family to all have the same name (husband, kids, etc.)

Now professionally, it'll be whatever I publish under first. So, if I get my phd before I get married...I'll always go as Dr. Brown. If it happensAFTERWARDS, then it'll be Dr.___

I don't get what's so funny? I'm also saving up for other things too. How do you buy stuff if you don't save for it, I don'tbelieve in spending money you don't have. And I don't want anyone to get me a bag or anything, I want to know that I got it on my own & that meansa lot to me.

 

[sundoobie]

If she refused to take my name then the entire thing would be over. No need to be with a female with that type of mindset. Women like that will divorce you andleave you in a heartbeat.

CoCo, how much are you willing to spend on a bag?

Logically do you think it is worth it?

 

[nawth21]

Neither here nor there, but the Chanel jumbo flap in caviar leather is one you hand down to your granddaughters

I wouldn't mind owning a vintageChanel piece.

 

[cocolicious]

^ lol this has nothing to do with with thread but I'm willing to spend how ever much. For certain designer bags it is worth it for many reasons, like forthe bag I want it's a classic chanel bag that has been around for years & is timeless. Another good reason is that the prices never go down in factthey increase so if anything bad were to happen and I needed to sell the bag I could make a big profit. But I'm getting it because I love it and it willmean so much to me to own it, I value all my things whether it's cheap or expensive.

You know it is a waste of $ deep down inside. Just trying to find ways to convince yourself that it is a justified purchase.

Same way dudes spend $160 on shoes.

If you have to save up for a purse, it ain't worth it. Hope you and your man don't have $ issues in the future because that is the type of stuff thatcan be a dealbreaker.

 

[cocolicious]

^ It honestly isn't a waste for me, it has been a dream of mine to own that bag and I will. And I like to save up for everything expensive or not, I'mnot going into debt.

Let's see what kind of asinine response #10,000 is.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Priorities, priorities. A dream to own a purse? Never heard that one before. Pretty sad if you think about it.

How old are you if you don't mind me asking. I assume you are young with this mindset.

but you're 16. So i would guess your bf is under 18. What he thinks doesnt matter. Hes not a man yet, hes a boy

Actually he's going on 20.

That isn't my only dream, I have many. And it's more then just a purse to me but you wouldn't understand that so there is nopoint in discussing it with you.

At least they serve more than cosmetic purposes though. LOL. A purse is simply an accessory and a name brand purse serves the purpose of showingstatus. So essentially, you are paying to show off. You will deny it of course because you have to justify your purchase but that is all name brand stuff is.SHowing off.

I am sure it isn't your only dream but to hear someone say it has been a dream of mine to own a purse just sounds funny.

Of course it's silly. And it's not a dream to own a purse, it's a dream to own a *certain* purse. Delicious, beautiful purse. It maybe a simple purpose, but it's an important one. I carry my life in this bag

I don't need to justify any of my purchases, although I am very good at it

and you can't tell me guys don't show off in their own ways, either. Although honestly, no one in MN cares what the hell kind of bag I'm wearing. RM, my brand of choice at the moment, doesn't have labels or anything butthe colors and leather selection are lovely. I want a new one

I don't know if this is for me but I never said I need things to make me happy. I am happy and have a great life and am grateful foreverything & everyone that's in it.

It just shows that he isn't sexist, doesn't care about irrelevant stuff like you guys do, and that he loves me no matter what, and a lastname shouldn't change it.

This is one of the main reasons it's hard to grasp you guys way of thinking. Mine does everything for me, I have never cooked for him a day in my life, ashe wants it.

1. So because I chose NOT to spend $160 on shoes means I can't afford it? That just means I am poor right? And you call my logic flawedcorrect? Ok.

2. Much respect @ the second comment.

I already said dudes spend $160 like idiots on shoes as well. I am willing to bet if NOBODY EVER comments on that purse that it willsubconsciously hurt your feelings. You can say, "I don't care what people think," but with someone as trivial as a name brand purse I don'tbelieve that can be used in this situation. But I see you were turning the corner in admitting that a big purchase for a purse is kinda stupid, which is whyyou have to keep bringing up things men do that are a waste of $.
